Abstract

This study analyzes the representation of multiculturalism within the Moroccan diaspora in the Netherlands based on the film Meskina (2021) by Daria Bukvic. The research question in this study is how multiculturalism is represented through the lives of the Moroccan diaspora in the Netherlands in the film Meskina (2021). This study using a descriptive qualitative method to analyze the representation of multiculturalism in the film. Meskina, a romantic comedy film, portrays the dynamics of the Moroccan diaspora community in the Netherlands, particularly focusing on millennial women or the second generation living amid Dutch multiculturalism, as seen from the perspective of the main character. Using Stuart Hall’s theory of representation and Aart van Zoest’s semiotics, this study reveals the shift in cultural values between the first and second generations of the Moroccan diaspora, especially in aspects of marriage, career, language use, and clothing style. The first generation is portrayed as holding firmly to their traditional values or cultural roots, while the second generation is more integrated into their surroundings but faces challenges in balancing Dutch culture with their original cultural identity. The purpose of this study is to describe the authentic representation of multiculturalism within the Moroccan diaspora in the Netherlands as depicted in the film Meskina. The findings conclude that Meskina successfully represents the life and cultural dynamics of the Moroccan diaspora in the Netherlands in accordance with today’s reality.

Bahasa Abstract

Penelitian ini menganalisis representasi budaya multikulturalisme pada diaspora Maroko di Belanda berdasarkan film Meskina (2021) karya Daria Bukvic. Rumusan masalah dalam penelitian ini adalah bagaimana budaya multikulturalisme direpresentasikan melalui kehidupan diaspora Maroko di Belanda dalam film Meskina (2021)? Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif kualitatif untuk menganalisis representasi budaya multikulturalisme dalam film. Meskina yang merupakan film bergenre komedi romantis ini, menggambarkan dinamika komunitas diaspora Maroko di Belanda, terutama pada perempuan milenial atau generasi kedua yang tinggal di tengah multikulturalisme Belanda, berdasarkan perspektif tokoh utama. Dengan menggunakan teori representasi dari Stuart Hall dan semiotika dari Aart van Zoest, penelitian ini antara lain mengungkapkan perubahan nilai budaya antara generasi pertama dan generasi kedua diaspora Maroko, terutama dari aspek pernikahan, karier, penggunaan bahasa, dan gaya berpakaian. Generasi pertama direpresentasikan lebih mempertahankan nilai-nilai tradisional atau budaya asal mereka, sementara generasi kedua lebih terintegrasi dengan lingkungan sekitar namun memiliki tantangan dalam menyeimbangkan antara budaya Belanda dan budaya asal mereka. Adapun tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mendeskripsikan representasi budaya multikulturalisme pada diaspora Maroko di Belanda secara autentik berdasarkan film Meskina. Hasil penelitian menyimpulkan bahwa film Meskina dapat merepresentasikan kehidupan dan dinamika budaya diaspora Maroko di Belanda sesuai dengan keadaan realita masa kini.
